Saudi Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Ali bin Ibrahim Al-Naimi said that the meeting of the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC), which concluded its 81st session here today, reflected the growing global concern of the oil producers or consumers. He pointed out that the meeting was a consultative meeting during which issues relating to oil and gas were discussed. In a press statement following the meeting, the minister stressed that it is too early to take a decision to reduce oil production before the next meeting of OPEC, pointing out that such a decision will not be taken before Oran meeting in Algeria.
